= Features =
== Renderers ==
The Legacy Engine ships with multiple renderers for optimized support on varying hardware.
In addition to natively supported renderers, the Legacy Engine also supports using the rendering backends: ANGLE and Mesa3D.
Mesa3D softpipe has been compiled for both 32bit and 64bit Windows.

=== UBO ===
Renderers: native

Required: OpenGL 4.0 (Optional: ARB_bindless_texture, ARB_buffer_storage)

Recommended: OpenGL 4.5 + ARB_bindless_texture

=== UBO (MESA) ===
Renderers: native, Mesa3D softpipe

Required: none

=== ANGLE ===
Renderers: native or ANGLE

Required: D3D9 with SM2 or OpenGLES 2.0

Recommended: D3D11 with SM4 or OpenGLES 3.0

= Sound Support =
Legacy Engine uses FFMPEG for decoding sounds. As a result, several different encodings are supported.
It is recommended however to use ogg/flac or ogg/vorbis.

= Plugins =
Legacy Engine utilizes primarily groovy for plugin extension. Any scripts placed within the folder "plugins" are loaded on launch.

== Actors ==
Actors are anything that can be controlled (AI or player)

== Backgrounds ==

== Fonts ==
All font files used by the engine are stored here. Accepted file type is ttf.

== Items ==
Anything that can be placed that is neither a Tile nor an Item.

== Particles ==

== Paths ==

== Scripts ==
Scripts are special plugins that are run once on launch. These are often used as "meta plugins"; ie: plugins that load other plugins.

== Sounds ==
All sounds used by the engine are stored here. This plugin type is further subdivided by type of sound. Only the subtype "sounds/ost" is loaded by default. Sound plugins may be defined by an optional JSON descriptor file.

Example JSON:
{
"name": "ost/Boss",
"resource": "06_boss.ogg",
"loopOffset": "15.150",
"cache": "false"
}

"name" is the tag assigned to the sound. Scripts reference sounds with this.
"resource" points to the location of the actual sound file (relative to the descriptor file)
"loopOffset" is the number of seconds to jump to after the sound loops.
"cache" indicates if the sound should be cached in memory. This is only recommended for short sounds since most sounds will expand up to 30x on decompress.

=== Ambient ===
=== Collect ===
=== Menu ===
=== OST ===
These are the song files that appear in editor and game.

=== Switch ===
=== Vocal ===
These are sounds that can be played when characters are talking.

=== Tiles ===
Tiles holds two different types of Plugins: TileSet and Tile.

* When an item is selected:
** Arrow Keys: move item 1 pixel
*** Shift: 8px, Ctrl: 32px
** Shift < mirror, Shift > flip vertically
** [ and ] rotate 1 degrees
*** Shift: 5 degrees, Ctrl: 45 degrees
** = and - for scaling larger and smaller. Currently by 101% or 99.01%
*** Shift: 125% or 80%, Ctrl: 200% or 50%
** Ctrl I, Ctrl K: switch Item to next layer
** Shift I, Shift K: bring to front/back within layer
** Shift Q: quantize/round to nearest pixel
** Ctrl Q: quantize to nearest 8px grid
** V: open item properties window
* Hold Ctrl when dragging to lock to 8px grid relative to it’s starting x/y. Quantize to change grid.
* Hold Shift when placing item to place multiple in a row
* 1-9 to switch layers (note: layers 8,9 are not used yet)
